ptsname_r: don't expect that this function sets errno

[Bruno Haible]

glibc ptsname_r sets errno when it fails, but this is not specified in
https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Allocation.html
and musl libc does not do the same thing. This leads to a test failure
of 'test-ptsname_r' on Alpine Linux 3.7.0.

This patch fixes it.

        ptsname_r: Don't expect that this function sets errno.
        * tests/test-ptsname_r.c (test_errors): Don't test errno after return
        from ptsname_r().
        * doc/glibc-functions/ptsname_r.texi: Mention the issue.
